Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A financial management system comprising: a processor; a memory, coupled to the processor, having instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to: analyze data comprising financial data; and determine a set of financial metrics based on the analysis of the financial data, wherein the set of financial metrics comprises total available credit, net worth, cash flow, pay history, assets, and debts; and a display in communication with the processor configured to display a balance with at least three balance arms, wherein: the at least three balance arms represent at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics; the balance has an orientation and an attribute; the orientation comprises an angle and a direction of a tilt of the balance; the attribute comprises at least one of: a shape, a size, a color, a rate of rotation, and patterns of the balance; the orientation changes by the angle and the direction of the tilt based on at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics; and the attribute changes based on the at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the display is further configured to display an object that protrudes from a substantially center point of the balance and has an attribute, and wherein the protruding object is manipulated so that the attribute of the protruding object changes based on a first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the protruding object has a projection that is an indicator of the first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the angle and the direction of the tilt of the balance is an indicator of a first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to manipulate an object near an end of a first balance arm of the at least three balance arms, wherein the object near the end of the first balance arm changes appearance based on a second financial metric from the set of financial metrics, and wherein the display is further configured to display the manipulated object.
6. A financial management method comprising the steps of: analyzing, by a processor, data comprising financial data; determining, by the processor, a set of financial metrics based on the analysis of the financial data, wherein the set of financial metrics comprises total available credit, net worth, cash flow, pay history, assets, and debts; and displaying, by the display coupled to the processor, a balance with at least three balance arms, wherein: the at least three balance arms represent at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics; the balance has an orientation and an attribute; the orientation comprises an angle and a direction of a tilt of the balance; the attribute comprises at least one of: a shape, a size, a color, a rate of rotation, and patterns of the balance; the orientation changes by the angle and the direction of the tilt based on at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics; and the attribute changes based on the at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising: displaying an object that protrudes from a substantially center point of the balance and has an attribute; and manipulating the protruding object so that the attribute of the protruding object changes based on a first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the protruding object has a projection that is an indicator of the first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
9. The method of claim 6 , wherein the angle and the direction of the tilt of the balance is an indicator of a first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
10. The method of claim 6 , further comprising: manipulating an object near an end of a first balance arm of the at least three balance arms, wherein the object near the end of the first balance arm changes appearance based on a second financial metric from the set of financial metrics; and displaying the manipulated object.
11. A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions that cause a data processing system to perform a financial management method, the method comprising the steps of: analyzing, on the processor, data comprising financial data; determining a set of financial metrics based on the analysis of the financial data, wherein the set of financial metrics comprises total available credit, net worth, cash flow, pay history, assets, and debts; and displaying a balance with at least three balance arms, wherein: the at least three balance arms represent at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics; the balance has an orientation and an attribute; the orientation comprises an angle and a direction of a tilt of the balance; the attribute comprises at least one of: a shape, a size, a color, a rate of rotation, and patterns of the balance; the orientation changes by the angle and the direction of the tilt based on at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics; and the attribute changes based on the at least one financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11 , further comprising: displaying an object that protrudes from a substantially center point of the balance and has an attribute; and manipulating the protruding object so that the attribute of the protruding object changes based on the first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the protruding object has a projection that is an indicator of the first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the angle and the direction of the tilt of the balance is an indicator of a first financial metric from the set of financial metrics.
15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11 , further comprising: manipulating an object near an end of a first balance arm of the at least three balance arms, wherein the object near the end of the first balance arm changes appearance based on a second financial metric from the set of financial metrics; and displaying the manipulated object.
